is this a season dutch oven

It is seasoned with paraffin wax. You'll need to re-season it, once you receive it.

Yes it is. However, I do not recommend! It was 2 bail handles instead of one. Better brands are Camp Chef and Lodge. I own all 3 brands.

No it's not seasoned, simple spray it inside and out with cooking oil,, or just lightly coat it by hand. Then at about 150 degrees in oven for about 6 hours take it out and wipe it down, and it is seasoned. never wash it with any kind of soap, the season will be washed off but dry it and apply another light coat of oil. Usually just some cooking oil on a paper towel, not much, you will be able to see were it's getting covered.

Hi you need to season it the first time you use it. Directions come with the oven. It is great. I use it all of the time.

Yes it is. But you should still season the pans before use. I am very happy with them.

I am not sure but I bet it is because that color isn't selling. It's a good small dutch oven in any color and should last a lifetime.

No. It is still a one season item. I tossed mine last fall and will be looking for a new one. I really like this one except for the rust.

I don't think there is seasoning for this cookware. Cast iron needs seasoning but not stainless

My guess is yes you can. I have had it on 425 I did not have a recipe that called for 500 degrees, I looked at the pamphlet that came with the dutch oven and it mentions so limit on cooking so I think you can. There is a customer service contact number which you may want to call. 800-497-4959. Good Luck! I love my Dutch Oven!

I re-season a new Dutch oven out of past experience. I follow the directions that Lodge sends with the oven. I teach Dutch oven cooking so maybe it just our of habit that I re-season a new oven.

Yes it sure does...the little spikes as you wrote, are what makes a dutch oven a dutch oven AS the inner moisture [put a cup of water in it on top of the meat] 'drips off of those little spikes' so the meat does not dry out no matter if its beef, pork or chicken it will remain moist. I love my pot roasts that I make in it! My mother has a Dutch Oven that she has been cooking roast dinners for years AS her father gave it to her for a wedding gift 66 years ago! Cast Iron can be passed down from one generation to the next AS all of ours will be. Hope this answer helps you.

Hi "melike", The season instructions should be in the box. Some pans are seasoned in the over and others are on the stove top. It depends on the type of handle the pan has.

Gee, I do not know. I use the good seasons in several recipes. The only combination of spices that taste great!

It's a 5 qt. dutch oven. I highly recommend this line of cookware. I have six pieces and love each and every one of them. Just don't put them in the dishwasher because it will ruin the outside finish. I learned that the hard way when I washed my first pan in the dishwasher. It is still useable but just not as pretty.

Yes - you can re-season this pan in the oven although it's not usually necessary. Cleaning the pan after each use wit hot water and a little table salt and a brush - then drying the pan before heating on the stove top. When the pan is hot to the touch but not so hot that the oil will smoke, add just enough oil to the pan so that it can be distributed evenly with a paper towel. I turn the heat to simmer and leave for a couple of minutes. That's about it - the pan is ready to go for its next use. Oven seasoning is usually reserved for pans that are brand new or neglected. Lodge factory seasons the pan your are asking about. Yes - you can re-season this pan in the oven although it's not usually necessary.

Melody, this Dutch Oven is black cast iron and as such must be rinsed out with warm water and seasoned after every use to preserve it.

I don't know. I don't know why it would be a problem. The dutch oven is heavy, but I think as long as you are careful, it doesn't matter that the cook top is glass. Maybe there is something about glass stove tops in the literature that comes with the product, or maybe with the glass top stove.

This is a French Oven. A Dutch Oven has legs, a flat top, and can be stacked one on top of the other if you have more than one. Look for items from Lodge if you want excellent quality and price.

I have never made this recipe, however I went on line, reviewed the recipe and noticed it calls for the oven to be preheated to 450 degrees. This pot is not recommended for temperatures higher than 350 degrees. Might I suggest you look into purchasing a cast iron or cast aluminum 6 quart covered Dutch oven.

Yes, it is. I just double checked. My pan is still going strong and we use it at least once a week.
